Description

This was an avalanche training course I did, and as it was my first ever winter mountain walk, I was given some basic advice about winter hillwalking and lent some equipment - ice axe, crampons (which we did not have to use) and goggles.
It was a very enjoyable day and I learned a lot.

Area : Strathyre to Strathallan (Ben Vorlich)

This area includes the eastern edge of the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park, and the Glen Artney Hills. Ben Vorlich (985m) and Stuc a’ Chroin (975m) are the only two Munros in the area which covers the land between Loch Earn (to the north) and the town of Callander (to the south). Access is typically from the A84 or A85.
